Özet

In this study, the ecological dyeing process of wool fabrics was investigated. Wool fabric samples were treated with atmospheric pressure plasma-jet and corona discharge plasma to modify the surface to make the process sustainable and greener. The samples were dyed with the aqueous extract procured from the powdered roots of Rubia tinctorum L. (madder) using the ultrasonic-assisted method. Scanning electron microscopy and Fourier Transform–infrared analysis were performed to investigate the effect of plasma treatment on the physical and chemical properties of wool fibres. The effects of plasma treatment type, plasma treatment parameters and the duration of dyeing on colorimetric and fastness properties were investigated. The etching of the wool fibre surface and roughness after plasma treatment were proven with scanning electron microscopy images. The Fourier Transform–infrared spectra showed that no significant differences in the functional groups of wool fibre occurred after plasma treatment. The experimental results proved that plasma treatment parameters and dyeing time had an effect on the colorimetric and fastness properties of the samples. Furthermore, an artificial neural network model was proposed for estimating the dyeing properties of wool fabrics, namely, L, a, b, K/S, colour change, rubbing fastness (dry) and rubbing fastness (wet). The experimental results show that the proposed model achieves regression values greater than 0.97 for all dyeing properties. The proposed model is successful and can be efficiently used for estimating the dyeing characteristics of wool fabrics.
